THE CHICAGO MARKET.


Special to The Constitution.
CHICAGO. November J2-The chief activity on
change today was in corn and provisions. The
wheat market was firm from the start and after an
advance OF &c, became very dull. Statistics were
not encouraging as they gave the prospect of O halt
million larger increase in the visible supply than
last week. but statistics have had little effect Of late
and the local crowd has acted by contraries The
frmness in corn had some effect on the market.
December opened at 7S14c sold at 49, q 7S5 &c and
closed at 5SIa97S3sc.
The peculiar strength noticed IN corn yestsriay

been reduced for the week about 400 600 bushels.

at the spread-eagleism of the American 4th
of July, which obscured the minds of the peo-
pie.
The last speech was in German, by Albert
Currlin formerly OF the Arbeiter Zeitung. He
scarcely got started when Captain Black
stepped to the front and laid his hand on the
speakers arm 1t was now pitch dark in
the graveyard and the people were
being wrought up to high pitch OF excitement
by the oratory and surroundings. Captain
Black gave word that the ceremonies would
now be considered closed. The collins of the
FIVE anarchists were carried into the blacknesS
within the vault, and the ceremonies ended
with general stampede of the people home,
An attempt was made today to assassinate
soldier of the second regiment, who was on
duty outside the armory on Washington bou-
levard. The shot was fired at him by man
supposed to be an anarchist, but did not take
effect. The assassin fled or hid, and was not
captured.
scHwAB TALKS.
In Joliet, on yesterday, Michael Schwab
said to Fire Marshal Kroner, with whom he is
acquainted, and who visited him at the prison:
'.Lingg was the scalawag who did it all.
Spies would not have been executed if the
bombs had not been found in Lingg's cell,
Why. that miserable rat asked for apencil and
paper to write some deviltry- ON only five
mnutes before he died. 1t is n mystery to me
how he managed 10 conceal that Illuminating
cap about him with which he took his life
Being asked in German what he thought
Lingg intended to do with the bombs, Schwab
replied
II think he was going to explode them
among the Jail officials and others, who would
be present at the execution and murder as
many as he could, regardless of the conse-
quences to himself. The actions of this
wretch We're what prevented commutation
for poor Spies. | do not think the police or
jail officials had anything TO do with the bombs

he got possession of them

were the officials of the monopoles and capt

brethren of the executed Chicago anarchists

Captain Mccullough soon appeared on the
scene with fifty officers, retaining a reserve at
a station house near q hand to he used in case
of emergency
A crowd OF 80 men, women and children
crowded around the entrance of the hall and
ciamorod for admittance. They became noisy
and abusive. The captain found il necessary

Tho officer finally was obliged to move his
force upon the crowd and dispelse 1t in the
midst of curses and violent expressions from

The collins were seized by the police and
safely deposited in the station house. No ar
rests were made. Over three hundred anar-
chists met in a hall back OF Ia saloon ON Seventh
street Herr Most was the drawing card.
When that disciple Of the faith arrived he was
greeted with loud cheers, aud led 10 the plat

were these:

"Grinnell, the periuror and thief, secured
witnesses who were willing to swear away the
lives OF seven innocent men,"

and it shall not cry in vain"
"The day of reckoning is approaching. Let
those who were interested in the arrests, trial
and in the hanging beware. That debt shall
be paid"

told 10y the Signal, has created indignation
here On the side OF the mountain, near Por-
ter Springs, lived two old women, one The
mother and the other the sister of William
Spencer, a wel-to-do man of this county. He
had refused 10 care for them and they were
paupers upon the county, being cared Tor by
young girl who lives with them in that lonely
place. Old Mrs. Spencer, aged about eighty
five, is paralyzed and cannot move from 4 seat
Mrs. Eliza Cain, who was her daughter, aged
about fifty, was subject 10 opileptic fits, and
had several times before this fell into the fire,
and would have burned to death had not some
one been present 10 save her. Mrs. Cain went
down 10 the wash-plaee on small shallow
branch, 10 try TO do some washing.
She appeared 10 be in good health,
and the young girl who stays with
the two old women went over to neighbours
house fer short while. A young
man happened 10 pass along the narrow trail
and TO his horror saw her lying in the branch

wero notified but il was no use. She was o
